About Us
PPP is an organisation operating at the heart of health and life sciences policy delivery. Our mission is to combine our own research and editorial reporting with the experience of others, to make practical contributions to the policy debates which address real-world choices based on real-world evidence.
Founded by former Secretary of State for Health, the Right Honorable Stephen Dorrell, we are independent from any political party, trade association or lobby group.
PPP brings together senior leaders and practitioners in the public and private health and life sciences sectors to find realistic solutions to the most pressing issues relating to health and care delivery.
We facilitate effective collaboration between public and private sector organisations. We help businesses to grow their profile within the NHS and wider public sector. In turn, we support public sector leaders and organisations with practical recommendations on implementing policy to improve health and wellbeing outcomes for local populations.
We offer insight, analysis, and intelligence through research, editorial, conference events, and written reports.
